Hi Lindsay,
Good luck on this exciting journey! I am your neighbour in Alberta and we just finished an international adoption from Liberia. Are you guys looking at a government or private domestic adoption?
Our homestudy was very detailed and involved alot of very thorough questions about our relationship, our upbringings, our views of discipline and parenting, etc. They did make sure we had space in our home for a child, but they didn't want a grand tour or anything. Our social worker came over 3 times and spent a couple hours each time. I was frightened at first about it, but it turned out to be really good. For dh and I, it reminded us of what we appreciate about each other and what we don't really appreciate so much. LOL
Can't wait to hear more of your story as it unfolds.
